Daily Huddle - Wed Jan 15, 2020 Teach Me To Follow

Love you all, praying for you. 
 
Praise God.  He doesn’t just teach you – He teaches you to follow.  There’s a difference.  The difference between hearing and doing.  I love what God shows us through the heart and life of David.  Psalms 119:33 – Teach me O LORD to follow your decrees, then I will keep them to the end.  There is teaching your decrees, and there is teaching to follow them.  If you’re taught them, you recognize, understand and believe them.  But if you are taught to follow them – it means a response and a habit, a structure that enables continued response.  God first speaks something to you, then He establishes it in you.  Your response, your habit, your structure, your repetition makes the one-time, the first time – the “all-the-time” – the permanent.  Tall building required strong foundations.  The foundation of your building - is obedience.  Things that spring up quickly can die off easily, but things that are planted deep, watered and cultivated, and continued…  that’s how an apple seed becomes an orchard not just a tree.  An orchard- which forever produces fruit.  When God teaches you to follow – it’s a rhythm of obedience in your life.  Praying that you are walking in the decrees of God.  He gives decrees to his people – that’s His Word – that’s PRISM for you.  And He gives decrees to you – the plans he has for you specifically, the way that is best for you, the way chosen for you – that’s PiVAT.  He has plans for the money He’s given you – to release you from it – so he can release it through you - that’s your 4C’s each day.  Note well the condition of your flock, give careful attention to your herds, for riches do not last forever nor is a crown secure for all generations.  Knowing where His money is so you can do what He tells you to do with it.  Praying that you will overcome every day – so He can establish his decrees in you through your obedience and your Testimony.  Time, Thoughts, Money, and Testimony.  PiVAT, PRISM, 4C’s, and your Daily Call.  These are tools that God can use to teach you to follow His degrees.  So the blessing He reserves for the faithful – His Awesome Power that He wants to demonstrate – on behalf of those whose hearts are fully devoted to Him – becomes the story of your life.  That's how His Name is made great in you!  There’s joy there - like no other.   Praying that you are fully walking each day in the joy that comes through the simple obedience that He leads you in - as He teaches you to follow.  

Love you all,
